It's been a crazy week for me it seems. I worked a lot this past week and kinda got behind on my homework. Though I did get everything done on time. It just took a lot of time. I even skipped out on a night out to finish everything. Man, I remember when I would go out anyways even if I did have a ton of homework to do. lol. I'm growing up. :) I'm so proud. During my crazy week, my friend Josh from high school came down to visit me because he had spring break. It was a huge surprise because he didn't tell me and Gina kept it a secret. So I didn't find out he was here until I walked into the bar in Providence. I was late meeting up with Josh, Gina, Erin, and Joe because I was out getting a reading with a psychic with Lisa and Paul and their family. They wanted to go see the psychics being done for the Winter festival. My reading completely amazed me. It put a lot of ease to my mind. Everyone was amazed with their reading too. There was a Perryfest going on because Ian was back from Iraq for 2 weeks I believe. That was a lot of fun. I
know that there were other things going on but I can't remember. It all went by too fast and the next thing I know it's Monday and its time for school. YAY!
My sister is coming to visit with Blake on March 7. I so can't wait to see her. I have to start baby proofing my room again. They'll be here for the St. Patrick's Day parade. Going to love dressing Blake up in green. Counting down the days.

Friday the 13th
Ahhh...Friday Feb. the 13th... It brings me back to an old memory. Way back in 7th grade. It was the day my first boyfriend and love Bryan asked me out. Now Bryan totally took me by surprise because I had no clue that he liked me. From the very beginning of 7th grade I knew I liked Bryan. Now Bryan became one of my best friends. He was part of my circle...it was Bryan, Jon, Dustin, Amber, Sabrina, Amy, Mari, Sarah, and I. Man, I miss all of them more as I typed their names. Jon who was best friends with Bryan and I told me the day before I left to go on vacation for Winter break that Bryan liked me. I thought that Jon was joking because he knew how I felt about Bryan and Jon does like to make a lot of jokes. Though I also kept hearing from other friends that they thought Bryan liked me as well. I kept thinking no its impossible cause I was convinced he liked one of my other friends Cheyanne. Cheyanne was this girl who lived 3 houses down from me and was a gorgeous blonde with a great personality. I liked her...everyone liked her. Plus they're both Mormons and knew that their parents would approve. I mean I'm not saying that their religion is one of the reasons why I couldn't believe he liked me...I just kept hearing that they stick together. Anyways, Cheyanne came up to me after school one day cause she had heard that Bryan might like her and I liked him and what not so she just wanted to assure me that she had no interest in him and wanted to say that she thought Bryan might like me as well. Now I'm thinking that maybe he does like me. Bryan never said a word to me or showed me that he liked me as more than a friend. He treated me like he always treated me.
February Fri. the 13, it was during lunch and we were all hanging out in our usual spot down by our 5th period class. 5th period I remember was Mrs. Pettite's math class. My group drove her crazy because we were always talking to each other. We all sat in alphabetical order and Bryan and my last name both began with a P. He sat right behind me. So I was hanging out with Amber, Amy, and Tabitha (Jon's gf) talking when Jon and Bryan came up to us. Bryan asked me to come with him for a second. I didn't think anything of it because Bryan and I had talked alone before but I was also a bit nervous. We moved over to one of the trees and he pulled out a box of chocolate and this small love book called a Key to Love behind his back and asked me to be his girlfriend. I was completely in shock that I believe it took me a good minute or two to say yes. As soon as I said yes we hugged and Jon came running up and stole my box of chocolate. I never even got one piece of chocolate. Jon had passed out all my chocolate....I guess that was his way of having everyone celebrate with us.
Bryan had told me that he had always liked me but didn't think I liked him until Jon blurted out that I liked him. Yeah I wanted to kill Jon for spilling my secret but I couldn't be mad at him because he did in a way help us get together. Bryan and I dated for 4 months. We broke up because his family had to move away. But during those times Bryan and I fell in love and had a pretty good relationship. I was shy as hell around him but he seemed to love it. I still remember our first dance to Hold On by Wilson Phillips during a party that I wasn't suppose to be at and our first kiss in the back seat of the car when we took a day off from school to go to Shimoda. We gave each other notes every day in the beginning of school and the end of school. Stand outside by our buses talking and say I love you to each other before we left to get on our buses. Bryan and I would sit on the side of the window since our buses were right next to each other and mouth cute things to each other until our buses pulled out. I also knew that I would find him waiting for my bus in the beginning of school and would walk me to my classes. Mrs. Pettite would usually have the person behind us correct our math papers as she told us the answers and Bryan would always pass my paper back with little cute comments. Mrs. Pettite never said a word about those comments if she collected them. I think I only got to correct his paper once or twice. I went to one of his basketball games and he came to one of my gymnastic mets. Everything was perfect.
The day Bryan left was the hardest day. It was a rainy Sunday morning on June. 14. I skipped out on church that day because Bryan was coming by my house to say a last good bye just by ourselves. Everyone was out of the house so we had the whole house to ourselves. We sat on my couch holding each other and me crying of course. Getting in as much hugs and kisses as we could. Promising each other we would keep in touch and to never forget what we had. Eventually he had to leave to help his family pack up the last of their things. While he did that Jon and Amber came over to support me and we went around pass and took some sticker pictures. We figured he could add it to his photo album we made for him at his going away party. Jon, Amber, and I arrived at the lodge 30 mins before Bryan's family took off for the airport. We watched them load up the van and then Bryan's family gave Bryan time to say good bye to everyone. I was the last person he said good bye to. One more kiss, one more hug, and one last I love you...then he was climbing in the van and with one last wave good bye he was gone. I didn't start crying until he started to pull away.
I know that's a lot to remember from a relationship that lasted for only 4 months and was so long ago. But its kinda true what they say about how you never forget your first love. I have moved on and grown from that experience. It did take me until I met Marc to fully get over Bryan. Bryan was my first love but Marc was my first true love. I thought that getting over Bryan was hard but trying to get over Marc is a huge challenge for me. Then again 5 years of love is hard to get over....

My goal for the summer and ice skating
I just finished a good hour workout. I am determined to lose lots of weight before summer arrives. I'm not very happy with the way my body looks right now and I would like to look like I did when I did crew at URI. I know its gonna be a lot of work but I am willing to work on it. I'm going to keep an exercise log of everything I do so I can track myself. Go Team Marissa!!! lol. I have a white skirt that I want to fit back into so that is a goal to work towards. And also I would like to look good in my bath suit when I go to the lake for Leanne's wedding. Oh, and I have to say for my health as well.
Later today I am going ice skating for the first time since high school. I feel like I need to get out of the house and have some fun. Been doing a lot of homework lately and my brain is starting to get tired from reading and writing. Can't wait. Well, I better go cleaned up from working out and get ready to ice skate. I hope I don't fall considering I haven't been on ice in awhile.

Fa La La La La
Right now I'm taking some time off from doing my brain paper. It's half way done and I know what I'm gonna say but I feel like I have been reading and writing about the brain all day. Plus I'm waiting for my eggs to cool down so I can peel them. Yummy egg salad. I am so hungry thinking about that right now.
So I just found out last night that my cousin John is getting married in Coloroda this July or August. So I get to add another wedding to my list. My summer is going to be fun with weddings. I've never been to Colorodo so I think it'll be fun. Plus I'll get to see my family in a different setting. Can't wait. I get to see 2 new places I've never been. :)
Anyways, nothing else new with my life so that's it for now.

A random Friday in February
Today I went to work. Thankfully I made it on time cause I was so out of it when I woke up. I'm glad that I had ironed my shit last night because I was so not feeling it this morning. Was so happy to see Val when I got there. I haven't see Val in almost over a month. And Paul was in too. All my faves were at work today. I had a ton of tables for a good hour and a half straight and once that rush was over I didn't get anymore tables. It's OK I helped Val set up the dining room for her banquet so the rest of my time went by quickly. When I got home I ate lunch and then took a little nap. I had such a bad headache and I needed for it to go away by the time tonight came.
Gina and I chaperoned the Girl Scout Valentine's Dance at 6:30 pm over at Gaudet. We brought chips and dip. At first I felt really out of place because most of the leaders are mothers and had their kids there. I got involved with cutting out hearts the whole time because one of the crafts was making a picture frame so the girls could put there picture on it after they got their picture taken with their dads or whoever they brought to the dance. The girls were so cute dressed up and some of the fathers even bought corsages for their daughters. The music was actually pretty entertaining. My favorite part was watching the fathers do the chicken dance with their kids. lol. The dance was a lot of fun and I would chaperone next year too. The dance was only 2 hours long but the time flew by.
Now Gina and I are watching Hero's before we go see Rocky Horror. I'm excited. I haven't seen it before and I heard that its good. Rob and Lisa are actually pretty surprised that I haven't seen it yet because its all about sex. lol. I kinda wish it wasn't playing so late because I do have work in the morning but then again I usually don't go to bed until 1 or 2 am.

Wasting time...
I am trying to waste time before heading over to Gina's. She has girl scouts right now. I probably should be doing some homework but I'm not really in the mood. I can't wait because we are going to Warwick to go get Hooters hot wings. So excited. I have been craving these wings since I saw them on tv last night over at OB's. Yum. Well, I hear they are good so they better be good. Be my first time at Hooters too. Gonna be a girl's night with Gina, Erin, and I at Hooters. WOO HOO.
So my day has been good so far. I went to school about an hour and a half early so I could print out a paper. I was really excited about seeing Sam there. Class was ok. Lots of talking and taking some notes. God, I am so bored right now. Nothing else to say so lata....

Break from homework
I just got sick of doing homework for my HMNS 1040 class so decided to blog while I am taking a break. I am mostly done with my paper so that's good. I always seem to wait the day before my class to start on papers. Then again its the best time for me to think and do an awesome job on a paper. I want to finish all of my homework by the time 8 pm rolls around so I can go watch American Idol and maybe go to trivia. I haven't been outside yet today but I heard it was snowing. I'm actually getting sick of the snow. God, I need to get a life besides doing homework all the time now.
Oh, so about my Nana I wasn't suppose to say anything because we aren't really sure about everything so we don't want to get anyone all upset and what not. So everything is hush hush. Lucky for me that everyone who reads my blog are people who won't say anything and also the fact that they don't really know my family.
I have been craving fast food so much lately. I guess because I refuse to eat fast food while I'm on this diet. Then again now I have until May to lose enough weight where I look damn good. I just got invited to another wedding from a friend that I haven't seen since elementary school in Japan. We kinda kept in touch and now she's getting married in May and wants me to come.
I think that it would be so good to see her again especially on her special day. I hope that her wedding will be a little later in May so I can come cause if its during school I don't think I could go. Woo Hoo weddings all around. I can't believe that I have been invited to 3 weddings in one year. Crazy. Starting to feel like the girl in 27 dresses. lol.
Anyways, it's time for me to get back to work. I have 2 1/2 hours before I met my deadline of 8:00.
